Ashes of War & Parries

Parries

Parries have been revamped. Now the active parry frames for all parry techniques match the parry animation, and animations have been also sped up. All parries now have a 3 frames start up window, but the Buckler Shield one, that has 4 frames start up, but it also has larger wind up window (7 frames vs 6 frames).
